Uhm...
I'm not sure that this workaround will work every time:
what happens if another adapter does not have any IP address?
Have a nice day GV

Subject: [WinPcap-users] Bug in v3.1beta4 of winpcap? Crash when open and close WAN adapter
FYI, I did the following hack for this, which seems to work fine - please let me know if this won't detect all WAN adapters and I then need to code it differently:
After the call to pcap_findalldevs, when I'm iterating through the pcap_if_t's, if dev->addresses is NULL then I treat this as an indication that it is a WAN adapter and skip it:
if (pcap_findalldevs(&alldevs, tlPcapErrbuf) != -1)
{
AdapterNum = 0; for (dev = alldevs; dev != NULL; dev = dev->next)
{
/* Skip the WAN adapter, if we try to open it with winpcap v3.1beta4 this
causes a crash */
if (dev->addresses != NULL)
{Etc.
Thanks. - Ed Remmell
